Although yoga was first introduced to the West in the 1800s, it is in recent decades that practice has become especially widespread, as the health benefits of ongoing practice have become known more widely. In Indian tradition, the practice had a threefold importance - it brought physical, spiritual and mental harmony. Yoga teacher training is now offered by many schools internationally, and many who complete training decide to teach in health or fitness institutions, or teach at private studios.
There are various different practices that have been developed over centuries of practice. Some approaches make use of heated rooms, where warmth and high humidity assist the body in forming postures which are taxing on the muscles. The elevated temperatures in heated studios help to lower the risk of injuries. Those who prefer not to sweat profusely during their practice might enjoy practices such as Hatha and Kundalini. Different practices focus on different objectives - Kundalini, for example, focuses on elevating consciousness. When you select a course, familiarize yourself with the various kinds of yoga first, as this will make it easier to choose.
By attending multiple classes which follow diverging methods, you will gain an idea of the breathing and the general physical discipline required to pursue a specific stream. This will aid you in deciding your path as a developing practitioner and instructor of yoga.
A significant aspect of becoming an instructor is learning the reason behind the multiple elements of yogic practices. Learning about the ways in which different poses affect the body will help you to provide those whom you teach with guidance in their practice, and you can apply what you learn to furthering your own practice.
An important factor in choosing a school for instruction is the cost of the service - if your budget is small you will not be able to afford an expensive retreat where accommodation and other expenses add up. By comparing different schools' programs and their fees, you can find a course which has the content and the cost which suits you.
Newer strands of practice have been trademarked in some cases, so that the certification of new instructors is closely monitored. While learning a trademarked stream of practice might cost you a little more in tuition fees, one of the advantages is that you will end with a qualification in a branch of yoga where there is more demand for teachers.
If you need to support yourself financially while you are completing your course, you are likely to need a lesson structure where you can complete modules in the evenings or over weekends. It is advisable not to spread yourself too thin, as many practices are physically taxing, and you might not have surplus energy to maintain a full work schedule after hours.
You are likely to enjoy an intensive course of <a href="http://www.feelgoodyogavictoria.com/yogateachertraining.php">yoga teacher training</a> far more if you embark on your process with the guidance of a practitioner who you trust. If you are considering taking a particular teacher's course, you might be able to attend group classes taught by the leader of the course beforehand, so that you can see whether the teaching style will suit you.
